I noticed that Kai had disabled secure boot, as well. I found a Thinkpad
with the same BIOS revision as Kai's Thinkpad (N27ET38W - 1.24) and
tested an unpatched v5.9 kernel running on an up-to-date Ubuntu 20.04.1
userspace. The main difference is that he has a Thinkpad T580 and I was
using a Thinkpad P52s. I was unable to reproduce the crash either by
running fwupdtpmevlog or cat'ing /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/binary_bios_measurements.

I noticed that Kai had cleared his secure boot allowed signature
database (db) so I also tried that but was still unsuccessful in
reproducing the crash.

Of course, I also tested with secure boot enabled and also after
toggling every secure boot and TPM related option in the BIOS. Still no
luck.

Kenneth mentioned elsewhere[1] that he experienced the crash with
Ubuntu's 5.8.0-18 kernel so I also tried that but still no luck.

Everyone that has reported this crash[1][2][3][4] seems to have been
running with an Ubuntu userspace. I do see that Ubuntu recently fixed a
shim bug[5] on Sept 24. Ubuntu auto-installs security updates by default
but this was not a security update so perhaps folks that were initially
affected by this crash hadn't yet applied the update. It looks unrelated
to me but it might explain why I can't reproduce this crash now, how the
crash no longer affects Mimi, and why nobody else is complaining about
the crash in recent weeks.

Kai, could you please try once more with v5.9 and ensuring that your
Ubuntu system is fully updated? If you're able to reproduce it with
v5.9, please send me your kernel config and your raw
/sys/kernel/security/tpm0/binary_bios_measurements file contents after
rebooting into a working kernel. I really appreciate it!
